[The interference-electropuncture for the disordered vegetative maintenance of the vertebral-motor segments in the patients presenting with dorsopathies].

Vegetative neuropathy of the vertebral component of the spinal nerve was identified based on the results of dynamic segmental diagnosis in the course of medical rehabilitation of 390 patients presenting with dorsopathies. 153 patients experienced segmental autonomous imbalance at the level of the vertebral-motor segments (VMS) of the spinal column. This neuropathy was characterized by the increased sympathetic influence on the tissues of VMS in 85 patients and the impaired sympathetic regulation of the VMS tissue in the remaining 68 patients. Interference-electropuncture (IFEP) as the method for the influence on the biologically active points by interference currents was included in the complex of rehabilitative measures in a group of 51 patients. IFEP parameters were selected on an individual basis taking into consideration the segmental mechanisms of vegetative regulation. The results of medical rehabilitation of these patients were substantially better and significantly different from the results of the treatment of other patients managed with the use of standard medicamental therapy and physiotherapy. At the same time, the patients with dorsopathies receiving IFEP reported a more pronounced alleviation of pain, regression of muscle-tonic manifestations, and improvement of the indicators of the quality of life associated with the improvement of vertebroneurological symptoms.
